The Grim, from Salmon River Solutions, Q&A

6 decibels is significant. I'm not sure if you much about decibels or not but one would hope the difference isn't 6 decibels. @ that point might as well keep the barrel long and shoot a good brake.

You can add 6 dB and still be in the neighborhood of 15 dB less than a bare muzzle, much less a brake.
 
I'll be hunting in Alaska for blacktail with my 16" 6.5 PRC. I'll be running the 4" reaper (and possibly the HUB reflex) and the Grim brake on the gun.

I'm trying to find the optimal suppressor for my 20" 6.5 PRC. I don't love the ZG6.5 on it now. With factory stock, I'd like a bit more recoil reduction. There's a chance when I put the rifle in a RokStok, I'll no longer need extra recoil reduction. I guess I'm going to have to break down my RSS for testing since my new RokStok is delayed.

I think OTB would look great on this 20" barrel. I also like the smaller diameter of the OG6.5. I'm curious about the new Nomad OTB with Recoil X and now the offering you speak of above.

Tell me more about 4" Reaper with Hub reflex. Is this available now, if not, what does the timeline look like?
In your experience, do any of the combos I mentioned above stand out for hunting with a 20" 6.5 PRC?
-Nomad OTB w/ Recoil X
-Reaper with reflex and Grim
-OG 6.5
-Tenet w/one port Horizon

I ran the OG6.5 on the same 16" 6.5 PRC for my first bear this spring on a jet boat hunt up the salmon river.

That rifles about 8.5 lbs, I watched my trace and bullet go into the bear at 430, and watched my follow up shot also at 360. That being said, I was rock solid in a prone position, and we had a ton of time waiting for him to pop out from behind a tree. The nice thing about the OTB is that I had this gun in a folding stock, and I put it in my gun holster on my Exo pack, suppressor down. The OG only sticks 4" past my barrel, which means the bottom of my gun is 4" from the bottom of my pack, and the folded section sits just below the top of the pack. It was extremely easy for bushwhacking thru stuff to pack that bear out.

@Cory_Shoot2Hunt can answer the suppressor questions better than I can. He does sales for SRS and Unknown Suppressors.
